Answer: The specialized compositions, which do different activities within the cells are known as organelles. Mitochondria and chloroplasts: These are the two organelles found within the cells of plants, which comprise their genetic information and ribosomes.

Explanation: Mitochondria are the "powerhouses" of the cell, breaking down fuel molecules and capturing energy in cellular respiration. Chloroplasts are found in plants and algae. They're responsible for capturing light energy to make sugars in photosynthesis.

hope this helps :)
